FRIDAY, APRIL 1, 1949 THE MICHIGAN DAILY 1_. Coeds Revise RushingPlan Counselling To Aid Sorority,_Rushee Under the new rushee counsel- ling system accepted by Panhel- lenic Association ten counsellors will be chosen annually. Selection will be made from a group of coeds consisting of two coeds chosen from each of ten h'ouses who will be representeo each year. The Panhellenic Board will hold interviews with the girls and select one from each of the sororities in the group. Counsellors must be sophomores or juniors at the time of election. They should be intending to finish a four year course. An asset would be a knowledge of Panhellenic rushing plans, Sororities will choose the girls they believe most qualified to be counsellors. A TRAINING program for coun- sellors will be given under the di- rection of the rushing chairman. Miss Ethel MacCormick, social di- rector of the League, psychologists, and personnel experts will help to train coeds selected. Counsellors will not wear their sorority pins while working for Panhellenic. During rushing they will not attend rushing parties, rushing meetings or member voting meetings. As members of Panhellenic exclu- sively during rushing they will be able to help rushees to a greater extent than if they were identified with a particular house, according to Christine Blair, rushing secretary of Pan- helenic. One of the duties of the coun- sellors will be to supervise an edu- cational program for rushees which will begin in the fall. Rush- ing counsellors will have informa- tion on chapter histories, recom- mendation procedures, and finan- cial data, available to them. THE PRINCIPLE duty of Pan- hellenic rushing counsellors will be to advise rushees and answer any questions which may arise. Parents and friends of the rushees will also be welcome to make in- quirias. Interviewing for counsellors will begin April 18. Hillel Foundation Will Hold Rally For UJADrive Hillel Foundation will sponsor a rally at 4:15 p.m. April 12 in the Union Ballroom for the United Jewish Appeal Drive. National goal of U.J.A. is $250,- 000,000; Hillel's goal is $9,000. Ap- proximately $1,000 toward the goal was collected from Hillelza- poppin show. Movies of Palestine will be shown at the rally to explain why the money is needed and where it will be sent. Three U.J.A. organizations to receive money from the campus drive are: United Service for New Americans which Americanizes immigrants to the United States, the Joint Distribution Committee which takes care of relief, recon- struction, and immigration work in Europe and North Africa and United Palestine Appeal Commit- tee which takes care of settlement in Palestine. The Foundation will serve din- ners and lunches from April 13 to April 21 to students who wish to observe the Passover holiday. Traditional Seders will be held on April 13 and 14. Reservations should be made be- fore April 7 to facilitate the plan- ning of meals. Students may con- tact Miss Goldberg at the Founda- tion for additional information. ALL POINTS EAST: I Students Plan Summer Travels Going traveling, either during' spring vacation or this summer? Then the word is. go East, young woman! Instead of heading out to the great west country, travel- ing coeds are heading to New York and points east-to Europe. To deal with the nearest prob- lem first, however, how about a change of scene during spring vacation? Everyone needs it, and by planning ahead on the fi- nances, at least weekend away from the usual home-to-school- axis can be managed. COEDS FROM Ann Arbor, De- troit and other nearby towns are especially anxious to get rid of the wanderlust along about the first week in April. Although it's always nice .to fly, sitting up on a train costs about half. For short trips, either one or several women can manage to visit another Michigan college, or one in a nearby state for the weekend. It's a lot nicer to know someone there, but it's not necessary. If one of the local gang goes 1o school at Oberlin, for example, their Easter vacation starts a week later than ours. So take up Susie on her invitation and visit her for a weekend! It's always a good idea to see how other colleges ind universities operate and sim- ply traveling is fun. AS FOR NEXT summer, since the tilne is now to get plans set up, Europe is the place to go. The only difficulty lies in financ- ing such a journey. There are sev- eral trips being arranged, how- uver, which are well-chaperoned and cost a minimum. One group will be in Stutt- gart, Germany, for six weeks, rebuilding some of the destroyed buildings. A group of men stu- dents will go to Munich again this summer, as they did last year. There's always the chance of spending the entire school year, studying in Europe. Smith Col- lege, for example, sponsors a jun- ior year in Geneva project lasting from September to July and in- cluding six weeks' study in Paris. THE BRITISH ISLES are on the list of trips this summer, too. One of the most inexpensive trips is sponsored by Donald Watt's experiment in an international living group of Putney, Vt. He sends groups all over the world. Further information on this proj- eet may be obtained from Bill Sinnigen. 5010. The Student Religious Asso- ciation has a great deal of in- formation on trips to Europe, and local travel bureaus are a. good place to check. So the time is now, if Europe's the goal, either for the summer or for next year. Any time of the year, a change of scene is a good idea for stu- dents. After all. the travelling opportunities offered now are per- haps the best ever, and the chance to travel won't present itself as often after college. d'fl'4hju9 Coffee ob 1204 South University Avenue serving BREAKFASTS, LUNCHEONS and DINNERS SANDWICHES and SALADS from 7:00 A.M. to 1]:00 P.M. and 5:00 P.M. to 7:00 P.M.

Movies Exert Strong Influence sl 1cker I On Average Am By MARILYN KLAFER Few coeds do not have recollec- tions of the great importance Shirley Temple's hair-dos tap ihoes and frilly dresses, had on their childhoods. The influence of the American movie passed long ago from the realm of pure entertainment into many other phases of our culture.. Recently the sociologists and psy- chologists of the nation are dis- turbed by the dangerous effect which the movie world has hld on the average American Woman. Scores of case studies made at several universities, colleges and clinics have provided experts with the outstanding source 'of frus- tration and neurosis amonlg wom- en . . . "lack of beauty." THE ADOPTION of Hollywood's standards in judging persons has not been conscious phenomenon. The very frequency of the average persons theatre attendance caused a gradual, unperceived acceptance of what Hollywood had to offer as perfection. Young men began to lose in- terest in women who did not b'oast Turner dimensions and dimples, a provocative wave cov- ering the right eye like Veron- ica Lake's, or a June Allyson nose that crinkles when a laugh is emitted. Women began to note the change in men's attitudes and to cope with the situation mimicked the stars as nearly as possible.
